Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": entry of large discount superstores.

Explanation:

A channel length is composed of the number of middlemen in the distribution channel of a product. The more intermediaries between buyers and sellers the larger the channel length. Under that scenario, if there are more discount superstores in a market such as Walmart or Costco manufacturers can directly offer their goods to them so consumers can find them available in their stores. The channel length would be small, then.

Answer:

7.36%

Explanation:

Nper = (10-2)*2 = 16

Pmt = 1000*8.7%/2 = 43.5

Pv = -108%*1000 = -1080

Fv = 1000

YTM = Rate(Nper, pmt, -Pv, Fv)*2

YTM = Rate(16, 43.5, -1080, 1000)*2

YTM = 0.036795696 * 2

YTM = 0.073591392

YTM = 7.3591392%

YTM = 7.36%

Answer:

the perpetuity will pay the student 166.36 dollar per years

Explanation:

First, we solve for the amount of the original investment after 5 years:

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount

Principal 1,642.00

time 5.00

rate 0.06200

1642 \: (1+ 0.062)^{5} = Amount

Amount 2,218.17

<u>Then, this goes into a perpetual annuity at 7.5%</u>

2,218.17 x 0.075 = 166.3630983 = 166.36

the perpetuity will pay the student 166.36 dollar per years
